 "Cheeseworks is very excited to represent Guffanti Formaggi," said Bryan Crittenden, CEO of Cheeseworks, in a prepared statement. "The company's long history of offering unique, exceptional cheeses is a perfect fit with our philosophy of offering innovative artisan products from around the world."
Wil Edwards of Guffanti Formaggi said that they chose Cheeseworks because of its "superior portfolio and focus on excellent customer service. It is critical that our cheeses are delivered in the freshest state possible to preserve the high quality our customers expect."
Guffanti Formaggi still selects its cheeses from the same production sites as it did in 1876, when the company was founded. Once selected, the cheeses undergo a refining process that takes place inside caves owned by the company and are then distributed to gourmet retailers.
Cheeseworks has been importing and distributing specialty foods for over 30 years and has a portfolio of over 3500 products.
